We unfortunately only stayed one night so didn’t have time to explore the place. The room itself was fantastic! Great size, clean, colourful and most importantly- quiet. And the customer service was great too! We will definitely rebook in the future but stay longer next time.

Nambucca is a lovely picturesque town on the north coast of NSW. It has a lovely beach with an excellent surf club building which offers cold drinks and live music from its upper balcony and stunning views of the ocean and sandy coast line. The walks along the beach both north and south are well worth the effort. The Nambucca river runs along its fringe and flows out into the ocean at the town and there is an easy and interesting walk at the river mouth where many of its protective rocks have been painted with mementos by visitors to the town. There is also a nice 18 hole island golf course on the river.

I stayed one night at the Forest View Bungalow in Nambucca Heads and loved it. The room was spotless, comfortable, and well set out. The setting is gorgeous, surrounded by trees with plenty of wildlife – I saw kangaroos grazing and tawny frogmouth birds resting. It felt private, quiet, and very relaxing. A perfect little nature getaway – I only wish I stayed longer!
